AutoML for Image Semantic Segmentation

Currently this repo contains the only working open-source implementation of Auto-Deeplab which, by the way out-performs that of the original paper.

Following the popular trend of modern CNN architectures having a two level hierarchy. Auto-Deeplab forms a dual level search space, searching for optimal network and cell architecture. network and cell level search space

Auto-Deeplab acheives a better performance while minimizing the size of the final model. model results

Our results:79.8 miou with Autodeeplab-M, train for 4000epochs and batch_size=16, about 800K iters

Our Search implementation currently achieves BETTER results than that of the authors in the original AutoDeeplab paper. Awesome!

Search results from the auto-deeplab paper which achieve 35% after 40 epochs of searching:

VS our search results which acheive 37% after 40 epochs of searching:

Training Proceedure

All together there are 3 stages:

  1. Architecture Search - Here you will train one large relaxed architecture that is meant to represent many discreet smaller architectures woven together.

  2. Decode - Once you've finished the architecture search, load your large relaxed architecture and decode it to find your optimal architecture.

  3. Re-train - Once you have a decoded and poses a final description of your optimal model, use it to build and train your new optimal model



Hardware Requirement

  • For architecture search, you need at least an 15G GPU, or two 11G gpus(in this way, global pooling in aspp is banned, not recommended)

  • For retraining autodeeplab-M or autodeeplab-S, you need at least n more than 11G gpus to re-train with batch size 2n without distributed

  • For retraining autodeeplab-L, you need at least n more than 11G gpus to re-train with batch size 2n with distributed

Architecture Search

Begin Architecture Search

Start Training

CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 python train_autodeeplab.py --dataset cityscapes

Resume Training

CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 python train_autodeeplab.py --dataset cityscapes --resume /AutoDeeplabpath/checkpoint.pth.tar

Re-train

Now that you're done training the search algorithm, it's time to decode the search space and find your new optimal architecture. After that just build your new model and begin training it

Load and Decode

CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0 python decode_autodeeplab.py --dataset cityscapes --resume /AutoDeeplabpath/checkpoint.pth.tar

Retrain

Train without distributed

python train.py

Train with distributed

CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES=0,1,2,···,n python -m torch.distributed.launch --nproc_per_node=n train_distributed.py  

Result models

TODO

  • Retrain our search model

  • adding support for other datasets(e.g. VOC, ADE20K, COCO and so on.)
